Migraine Symptoms

In terms of pain, migraine symptoms can range from a dull ache at the base of your skull or behind your eyes to an intense throbbing pain that seems to envelop your entire head.

At times, the pain induced by a migraine can be completely debilitating, and the frequency of symptoms can range from every few days to a few times per year, depending on the individual.

Some of the other common symptoms of migraines include:

Strong sensitivity to light, noise, or specific smells
Loss of appetite
Fatigue or drowsiness
Dizziness or general loss of equilibrium
Nausea and vomiting
Feeling overheated or cold

Relief From Migraine Headaches

For most people, a migraine lasts only a few hours, but it can last for days in extreme cases. Natural pain relief, like chiropractic care, can help relieve some types of migraine pain by targeting the pain's underlying cause and not just the pain itself.

When you use pharmaceuticals to cover up the pain, the true cause isn’t being addressed, and the problem will never completely disappear. Drugs are always just a temporary fix, but if you want lasting relief, it’s important to get to the root cause and fix whatever is causing that pain symptom.

What Causes Migraine Headaches?

Migraine headaches can have several different causes, and it can be challenging to pinpoint which one or group of causes is responsible for yours.

Here are some of the most common causes of migraines:

High-stress levels – these could be from work, relationships or something else

Caffeine – drinking too much coffee
